Embodiment
Below, embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The 1st embodiment
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of microcavity section construction of a pixel of the related panel of the 1st embodiment.
Predetermined position at glass substrate 10 is formed with semiconductor layer 12, and this semiconductor layer 12 constitutes TFT, electrode or distribution.In the example of diagram, semiconductor layer 12 constitutes source electrode (ソ one ス), raceway groove (チ ャ ソ ネ Le), drain electrode (De レ イ Application) zone of drive TFT 14.The semiconductor layer 12 of this drive TFT 14 is covered by grid oxidation film 16, and on this grid oxidation film 16, be to be formed with gate electrode 18 above the channel region of semiconductor layer 12.Dielectric film 20 between the holomorphism stratification, and cover this gate electrode 18 and grid oxidation film 16.
In the source region of drive TFT 14, run through interlayer dielectric, connect source electrode 22, form planarization film 24 and cover source electrode 22 and interlayer dielectric 20.
Be formed with the transparency electrode 26 of respective pixel viewing area size on planarization film 24, this transparency electrode 26 is connected the drain region of drive TFT 14 by connecting hole.
And the periphery of this transparency electrode 26 is covered by the 2nd planarization film 28, configuration organic EL 30 above transparency electrode 26.
Organic EL 30 is to possess organic compound in transparency electrode 26 and between electrode 32, the lamination structure that particularly possesses the organic layer (light emitting element layer) 34 that comprises luminous organic material at least, organic layer 34 is injected from anode in the hole, electronics is injected organic layer 34 from negative electrode, injected holes and electronics combination once more in organic layer, utilize gained again in conjunction with the energy excitation luminous organic material, when being returned to substrate (substrate) state, produce luminous.
At this, transparency electrode 26 is by for example ITO (tin indium oxide, indium tin oxide) or IZO conductive metal oxide materials such as (indium-zinc oxide, indium zinc oxide) constitute, make by the Al that plays top reflectance coating effect or its alloy over against electrode 32.Be provided with in the lower floor part of transparency electrode 26 in order at the bottom reflectance coating 36 that constitutes small resonator (microcavity) structure between itself and the top reflectance coating (over against electrode 32).That is to say that bottom reflectance coating 36 is not to be arranged on whole light-emitting zone, and is arranged on the part, be not provided with that the light from organic layer 34 can direct directive below in the zone of bottom reflectance coating 36.
This example, relate to a kind of end emission (ボ ト system エ ミ Star シ ヨ Application) type display unit, it makes the light by organic layer 34 gained penetrate substrate 10 and penetrate extremely outside from transparency electrode 26, and bottom reflectance coating 36 can make a part penetrate, promptly have half penetrability from the light of organic layer 34.This bottom reflectance coating 36 can use the alloy film of any or these metal of Ag, Au, Pt, Al, but can be the film of penetrable light, also can be the pattern that mesh shape, clathrate etc. possess peristome.Also can be to constitute by the dielectric dielectric multilayer film more than different 2 kinds of mutual lamination refractive index.In addition, the blooming of each layer dielectric film preferably, for example 1/4 of the purpose reflection wavelength or its integral multiple.
Organic layer 34 possesses and comprises the luminescent layer of luminescent organic molecule at least, and situation about being made of individual layer, 2 layers, multilayer laminated boards more than 3 layers or 4 layers is also arranged according to material.In the example of Fig. 1, utilize the continuous film forming of vacuum vapour deposition etc., from transparency electrode 26 sides as anodize, lamination hole injection layer 122, hole transporting layer 124, luminescent layer 126, electron supplying layer 128, electron injecting layer 130 successively, and the same vacuum vapour deposition of utilization and organic layer 34, on electron injecting layer 130, be formed on this had cathodic process over against electrode 32.And, also electron injecting layer 130 can be considered as the part of counter electrode 32.
Microcavity that present embodiment relates to structure is formed on the zone that this transparency electrode 26 is facing with seizing organic layer 34 on both sides by the arms over against electrode 32, i.e. the bottom reflectance coating 36 of the lower floor of transparency electrode 26 and over against the interlayer between the top reflectance coating of 32 dual-purposes of electrode.At this, the optical length of this microcavity (optical distance) L represents with formula (1): L=∑ n id i, (1), promptly be formed on bottom reflectance coating 36 with over against each layer thickness d of the interlayer of electrode 32 (top reflectance coating), with the long-pending of the refractive index n of this layer and (i be lamination number and for being not less than 1 integer) expression.Moreover this optical length L has the relation shown in the back formula (3) with respect to emission wavelength λ, according to shown in concern and set, can selectivity strengthen wavelength X and it penetrated to outside.
At this, when utilizing the microcavity structure to strengthen certain wavelengths, the visual angle interdependence can uprise as mentioned above.Therefore, in the present embodiment, in 1 pixel, have the zone that does not have bottom reflectance coating 36, in this zone, directly penetrate from the light of organic layer 34.Therefore, because of the microcavity structure strengthens specific wavelength, but have the light of the peak value of wider range from the ejaculation light in the zone that does not have this bottom reflectance coating 36, and the visual angle interdependence is less.Therefore, can strengthen specific wavelength, lower the visual angle interdependence simultaneously from the ejaculation light of 1 pixel.
At this, in the full-color organic EL display panel, have the pixel of pure R, pure G, pure B usually, with respect to the wavelength X (λ r, λ g, λ b) of R, G, B, predetermined optical length L (Lr, Lg, Lb) is by each pixel decision of R, G, B.At this, bottom reflectance coating 36 and adopt metal materials over against electrode 32, the phase deviation of these film reflex times in back formula (3) so that ( represents.
And in the present embodiment, according to the illuminant colour (pressing the RGB branch) of pixel, change has these bottom reflectance coating 36 zones, does not have the area ratio in these bottom reflectance coating 36 zones.That is to say that as shown in Figure 2, the area ratio that has bottom reflectance coating 36 zones is minimum in the R pixel, is medium, and is maximum in the B pixel in the G pixel.
Moreover the resonant wavelength that causes because of the visual angle changes, and promptly the long more visual angle of wavelength interdependence is big more.Fig. 5 illustrates the relation of resonant wavelength and visual angle interdependence.Transverse axis is the resonant wavelength in the front, and resonant wavelength and front resonant wavelength was poor when the longitudinal axis was 60 ° at visual angle.As shown in the figure, interdependence soprano in visual angle is R.Therefore, as present embodiment, the area ratio that has bottom reflectance coating 36 zones is minimum in the R pixel, is medium in the G pixel, and is maximum in the B pixel, and in RGB is of all kinds, can similarly carry out the enhancing of specific wavelength and the improvement of visual angle interdependence.
In Fig. 2, the zone that has bottom reflectance coating 36 is made as the core of pixel (light-emitting zone), can be configured in one-sidedly as shown in Figure 1, also can form several discrete zones etc., can dispose bottom reflectance coating 36 at an arbitrary position.
The 2nd embodiment
Fig. 3 is the structural map of the 2nd embodiment, the whole light-emitting zone of bottom reflectance coating 36 coverings.On the other hand, organic layer 34 is thicker in the part of light-emitting zone.In this example, hole transporting layer 124 left zone in light-emitting zone, figure is thicker, and is thinner in right zone.
The characteristic of microcavity structure is decided by the distance (microcavity length) of 36 of top reflectance coating and bottom reflectance coatings.Therefore, in the present embodiment, the length of microcavity is different because of the thickness of organic layer 34 in 2 zones of luminescent layer, and the light wavelength that is strengthened by the microcavity structure is different because of the position.
Fig. 4 is about the cavity length D of microcavity, at (1) 2720 dust (angstrom, to call A in the following text) (MC=2720), (2) 3800A (MC=3800), (3) no microcavity (reference), (4) when 2720A and 3800A (MC=2720+MC=3800, the area ratio is 1: 1), represent that each sends the visual angle interdependence that EL element is arranged of green glow.And Fig. 4 is chromatic diagram (colourity the figure) (Y * y) of CIE chromaticity diagram (color specification system).At this, microcavity length D be used to the photoresonance that makes predetermined wavelength and the reflectance coating of the above-mentioned optical length L that requires with partly penetrate intermembranous actual thickness (thickness total), with D=∑ di ... (2) expression.
MC=2720 represents to have the resonant wavelength of 570nm in the time of 0 ° at the visual angle with x in scheming, for the bottom right (x=0.39, the Y=0.58) colourity shown in, along with the visual angle becomes big resonant wavelength can be to short wavelength side displacement (move on the upper left side in figure).60 ° the time, have the resonant wavelength of 520nm at the visual angle, can obtain the high green of colorimetric purity, as upper left among the figure (x=0.21, y=0.71) shown in.
On the other hand, MC=3800 represents with black triangle, have the resonant wavelength of 510nm at the visual angle when 0 ° (promptly with respect to microcavity for positive), be upper left among the figure (x=0.19, the green that colorimetric purity Y=0.69) is high, along with the visual angle becomes big, resonant wavelength can be to the short wavelength side displacement, and promptly move the lower right in the figure, in the time of 60 ° at the visual angle, arrive bottom right (x=0.37, position y=0.55) among the figure.Moreover, result from the luminescent spectrum that uses the luminous organic material on this element, owing to when green, have peak value, and blue composition is less, so even resonant wavelength is along with the visual angle becomes big and displacement, this resonant wavelength composition in the luminescent spectrum originally is less, so the luminous intensity of element can reduce, and becomes the green light that partly penetrates.No microcavity (Reference) represents that with ◇ its moving range is x=0.30 to 0.33, and about y=0.60 to 0.63, the visual angle interdependence is less relatively.And, MC=2720+MC=3800 in the present embodiment, its visual angle interdependence is littler during than single microcavity condition.Just, be 0 ° at the visual angle, during MC3800A, be 60 ° at the visual angle, can present high colorimetric purity during MC2700A, no matter, can often keep high colorimetric purity therefore at which visual angle.Therefore, in the element in the different zone of several microcavity length of combination, the moving range of colourity is at x=0.27 to 0.29, about y=0.63 to 0.65, compare no microcavity and more be positioned at the upper left side on chromatic diagram, and displacement is less, and colorimetric purity can promote.
So, according to the structure of present embodiment, in 1 pixel, constitute the microcavity of 2 kinds of thickness (grade differential about 1100A) of 2720A, 3800A respectively, thereby significantly improve (minimizing) visual angle interdependence at the light of green.
At this, the visual angle interdependence of resonance condition and resonant wavelength is expressed from the next.

λ’=λ+(cosθ-1)λ
Moreover the L in formula represents above-mentioned optical length D (D=∑ n id i), the representative is at the constant of the phase-shifted that metallic reflection caused, and θ represents angle (visual angle).
Peak wavelength was towards the displacement of short wavelength side displacement when Fig. 5 is illustrated in transverse axis peak wavelength when being 0 ° at visual angle, the longitudinal axis were 60 ° at visual angle.Microcavity length D is made as 4500A to 5500A.So, peak wavelength is about 450nm in the time of 0 ° at the visual angle, and the displacement of wavelength is about 28nm during 60 ° at visual angle.And under the condition about 0 ° at the visual angle, peak wavelength 450nm, the displacement of wavelength is about 60nm during 60 ° at visual angle.
So, 0 ° and peak wavelength are to observe on the direction of 60 ° at the visual angle of waveforms of 600nm at the visual angle, and its peak wavelength becomes the waveform that peak wavelength is 540nm to short direction displacement 60nm.Therefore, in order under the situation of green glow 550nm, to carry out interpolation, made up with microcavity length D (resonant wavelength is at the microcavity length D of 600nm to 700nm) about 600nm to 700nm.By following formula as can be known, when m=1, grade differential is roughly 1000A (100nm) to 1300A (130nm).
Moreover MC=2720 and MC=3800 are 570nm (m=1), 510nm (m=2) with respect to the resonant wavelength of the light at 0 ° at visual angle respectively.That is to say that in above-mentioned example, the visual angle interdependence is less, for making the microcavity of paired green glow, when being 0 ° at the visual angle, combination is with 510nm, the 570nm microcavity length D as resonance peak in 1 pixel.
And, to ruddiness 630nm, preferably, the microcavity length D about combination 700nm to 800nm, when m=1, grade differential is roughly about 1600A.To blue light 450nm, preferably, the microcavity length D about combination 480nm to 580nm, when m=1, grade differential is roughly about 1000A.
Moreover grade differential is different different because of m choosing value, but when considering grade differential lining property (lining), preferably, grade differential is controlled at below the 2000A.Just when with the mutually different zone definitions of microcavity length in 1 pixel being the 1st zone (for example above-mentioned MC3800A) and the 2nd zone (for example above-mentioned MC2700A), the microcavity length D in the microcavity length D in the 1st zone and the 2nd zone, preferably, light-filtering characteristic when considering it etc. respectively with purpose resonant wavelength, original luminescent spectrum, colored filter combination, determine respectively, preferably, poor (grade differential) with microcavity length is controlled in the 200nm (2000A).Owing to be set in the above-mentioned scope, even when forming the 1st and the 2nd zone at the thickness of change transparency electrode as mentioned above, rely on the grade differential that is formed on the transparency electrode, can prevent the broken string on electrode upper strata etc.For example, during the thickness thickening of electron supplying layer, may cause driving voltage to rise, because not wishing voltage rises, therefore be set at thickness mostly less than 3000A, prevent the viewpoint that breaks from this electron supplying layer because of utilizing grade differential, preferably, grade differential is controlled at below the 200nm.
As mentioned above, as can be known in 1 pixel region of certain color, because of setting several microcavity length D, can improve the visual angle interdependence and colorimetric purity is promoted, but at this selected several microcavity length D, for example being set at originally at the visual angle 0 ° the time at 1 microcavity length D in the 1st zone, the resonant wavelength of purpose is the thickness of peak wavelength, the 2nd zone compensate microcavity length D at other visual angle when (for example 60 °) with the 1st different being used in zone, the resonant wavelength that is set at purpose is the thickness of peak wavelength.Moreover selected several microcavity length D is long also passable.In the above description, in 1 pixel, form 2 kinds of zones that microcavity length is different, but be not limited to 2 kinds, also can form according to need more than 3 kinds or 3 kinds.
And, in the present embodiment, during the thinner thickness of the organic layer of the microcavity that is used to compensate, according to the glow color (difference of RGB) of pixel, the zone that change organic layer 34 thickness are thicker, with the area ratio of the microcavity lower thickness regions that is used to compensate.That is, pattern as shown in Figure 6, the area ratio in organic layer 34 thicker zones is minimum in the R pixel, is medium in the G pixel, and is maximum in the B pixel.
This is because when investigating visual angle (because of the visual angle changes) characteristic of microcavity structure specific wavelength as mentioned above, the high more cause of long more its visual angle interdependence of wavelength.
Like this, minimum in the R pixel according to the area ratio in organic layer 34 thicker zones, be medium in the G pixel, be maximum in the B pixel, and in RGB is of all kinds, carry out the enhancing of specific wavelength and the improvement of visual angle interdependence equally.
And, not only can suitably change the thickness of organic layer 34, the thickness of also variable transparency electrode 26.
The 3rd embodiment
Fig. 7 is the structural map of the 3rd embodiment.Bottom reflectance coating 36 covers whole light-emitting zone.And this bottom reflectance coating 36 is made of above-mentioned dielectric multilayer film, and makes its thickness different in 1 pixel (1 light-emitting zone).That is, in the thicker zone of thickness, dielectric lamination number can become big.In this embodiment, the left zone of the thickness of bottom reflectance coating 36 in light-emitting zone figure is thicker, and be thinner in right zone.
Microcavity structure decides characteristic by the distance (microcavity length) of 36 of top reflectance coating and bottom reflectance coatings.Therefore, in the present embodiment, during the thickness of change bottom reflectance coating 36, its thickness is thick more, and the reinforced effects of the light of the specific wavelength of microcavity structure is also big more.Therefore, in the present embodiment, in 1 pixel, form for the bigger zone of the reinforced effects of the light of specific wavelength and for the less zone of reinforced effects of the light of specific wavelength.Thus, the light of specific wavelength can be strengthened, the visual angle interdependence can be reduced simultaneously.
